Kawkab Marrakech close to signing Raja AC winger Ayoub El Maamouri

Moroccan outfit Kawkab Marrakech are on the verge of completing the signing of Raja Athletic Club winger Ayoub El Maamouri in the current transfer window.

Despite being on the radar of several clubs, Kawkab Marrakech have made significant progress in negotiations for the 26-year-old.

Currently, the club is working to complete the deal ahead of other suitors Hassania Agadir and Meknes.

Kawkab Marrakech’s management has already secured official approval from Raja AC for El Maamouri’s departure.

The agreement follows a series of advanced negotiations involving the clubs and the player, with Kawkab Marrakech officials successfully convincing El Maamouri to join their sporting project.

The club’s ambition and plans for the upcoming season are understood to have played an important role in the player’s decision, particularly after competition for his signature intensified during the current summer transfer window.

Hassania Agadir and Meknes had also shown strong interest in securing the services of the experienced winger, but Kawkab Marrakech have emerged as the preferred destination and are now expected to complete the transfer.

The final details of the agreement are expected to be settled in the coming hours, paving the way for El Maamouri to sign his contract and officially become a Kawkab Marrakech player.

His arrival would represent another important addition to a Kawkab Marrakech squad that is undergoing significant reinforcement ahead of the new Moroccan football season.

The club has already been active in the transfer market, securing the services of several players as part of a broader project aimed at building a competitive team capable of achieving its objectives next season.

Among the players who have already joined the Marrakech outfit are Abdellah Haimoud, Abdelkrim Baadi and Amine El Waad, with the club continuing to search for further additions to strengthen different areas of the squad.

El Maamouri’s potential arrival would provide Kawkab Marrakech with another experienced option in attack. The 26-year-old operates primarily as a winger and has built considerable experience in Moroccan football.

His familiarity with the Moroccan league is expected to help him adapt quickly to his new surroundings should the transfer be completed.

For Kawkab Marrakech, securing El Maamouri would also represent a statement of intent as the club looks to assemble a squad capable of competing strongly in the upcoming campaign.

The Marrakech side have been working to add quality and depth to their squad, and the signing of an experienced winger would give the coaching staff another attacking option while increasing competition for places within the team.

El Maamouri, meanwhile, is set to embark on a new chapter of his career after his spell with Raja Casablanca, with Kawkab Marrakech now appearing to be his most likely destination.

The club is expected to officially announce the signing once all the necessary paperwork has been completed and the final contractual details have been concluded

If completed as expected, El Maamouri’s arrival will further underline Kawkab Marrakech’s determination to build a stronger squad ahead of the new season after beating two other interested clubs to the player’s signature.
